... That Expo 86 opened. What do you remember most about the fair?
|
I remember...
Garbo's Garbage Pavillion
Using the Staff tram to get from one end to the other because it was free and nobody asked for ID
The aviation pavillion, where I helped build an entire airplane from kit to flying in the space of one week
The Egypt pavillion, with all the artifacts... I went back there about a dozen times
Buffalo burgers!
Pushing open the doors on the Skytrain (all the way open!) as it slowed down going past the fair, and waving at fairgoers
And after Expo closed...
Climbing the fence and playing in the children's play area at night, and hiding from the security guards in the pit of plastic balls
Trying not to laugh as the security guards walked through the balls looking for those "damn kids", and almost losing it completely when one of my friends got caught when one of the guards tripped over him
